Thyroid Biopsy
So after my doctor ordered a ultrasound of the thyroid, it came back that I had 3 nodules and 1 suspicious goiter. He ordered a fine needle aspiration biopsy. I was a little nervous but it really wasn't that bad and it only took a few minutes. They numbed me up and I just could not cough or swallow while the doctor was administering the procedure. Easy Pezzy! Just a little sting and they cleaned me up and put a tiny band aid on it and I was out the door! Finally got the results a few days ago and it was negative!! Thank you Jesus!
